- Provides a link in microstructural features across scales to control martensite hardness. The approach influenced much of the martensitic steel alloy design efforts in programme grants HEmS (www.hems.ox.ac.uk) and DARE (www.darealloys.org). The work has been implemented in commercial software to estimate strength as a function of composition (https://www.matcalc-engineering.com/). It has been used by other groups as a core concept in large grants (>£2m) for steel development (Prof Wei Xu, Northeastern University, China, xuwei@ral.neu.edu.cn; Dr Isaac Toda, CENIM-CSIC, Spain isaac.toda@cenim.csic.es). The relationships proposed in the work have been verified in synchrotron radiation experiments (Diamond, I11, Oxford).
